First things first: depending on when exactly you got your device or transferred ROMs on it, there may be something not quite right with the Pokemon Fire Red ROM that comes with the Anbernic. If you just play on the Anbernic, all is fine, but the save files (.sav) and the ROM itself tend to cause issues on other emulators, which we need to finalise the Pokemon transfer. More specifically, you won’t be able to save, as it will get stuck when you try do so); also, it won’t load into PKHeX, if you’re into that kind of thing.

[THIS IS A DRAFT DOCUMENT, POSTED FOR REFERENCE, IT MAY BE UPDATED] This is mostly a collection of scattered notes. I place them here, as I use the device only occasionally and from different laptops, hence I always end up wasting time troubleshooting issues. The most annoying - at least on Linux - are port permission issues, as IDEs and such just give generic errors and forums will send you through all sorts of unrelated side quests for resetting the device, etc.

This is an update of a previous post on running a fresh Wordpress installation with Docker. Details on the docker-compose.yml in that post remain basically accurate, but I’m reporting here an updated Dockerfile based on php 8, as well as some quick fixes for common problems. Dockerfile ready for Wordpress based on Php 8 (php:8.0-apache) N.B. This is a basic Docker image that comes with an empty server directory, no Worpdress pre-installed.

2023 update: if you are just looking for a basic and updated php-based Dockerfile for Wordpress, with its own Traefik-based docker-compose.yml, check out this post. If you are interested in testing older php versions, read on. As of Autumn 2019, many Wordpress users will likely have found a warning suggesting they must update php on their server. As php 5.6 has reached end of life in 2018, this is well needed.
